  1. Thanks for the link. I like the rollover option and had already thought about it, but not like the one in the picture. I don't seem to find exactly what I need, so I guess the DIY option will win.
  2. What options do we have for rear wheel carriers in soft-tops? The rear door is a "picnic-table", so the carrier must be swing-away. I know that Britpart and Mantec have some, but has anyone built a stronger carrier? I saw a Kaymar look-a-like today in a Defender, and I like their heavy-duty look, but don't like their price tag...
  3. Some Land Rover Santana (Spanish) models had anti-sway bars, front and back. Even 88'' ones. I no longer have the bars (sad story), but may have their supports. They're basically the springs mounts with a bar. If you need them, let me know and I'll dig in the pile. Some pictures:
  4. Since these are usually out of stock everywhere or have a high price tag, you can make your own, similar to the original. Or just use a string or a chain
  5. Yes, but the 4-speed ones are the same as the british ones, and the LT85 was the only 5-speed box for the Series (used on 2 Diesel models: SIIIA Turbo - with the 2.3TD engine - and 2500 - with the 2.5D engine). Yes, it is! It fits the 2 1/4 D engine without any mod, so others may also apply (200/300 TDi, for example).
  6. The engine appears to be the standard 2 1/4 D:
  7. Not that one... The 5 speed Santana box is the LT85 and it looks like this: The knob on the LT85 is similar to the LT77: So, it's not a LT85 Spanish Santana 5 speed... More ideas?
  8. Came across a SIII with a 5 speed gearbox in it, but I have no idea where it came from. Does anyone recognize it?
  9. From what I've gathered, there are at least 3 (not counting with other possible variants, like the Australian): - 20C / Heavy Duty with filter - 20C / Heavy Duty without filter - 22C / Split Case (no filter here) I have some pictures of this filter location, but not of the filter itself (my gbox doesn't have it).
  10. I had hopes to see an answer more along the lines of "sure it does! no problem whatsoever! it's just a bolt-on job"... The bell housing is still missing (but on it's way to meet the rest of the LT85), so there's still a chance of it working. The problem could be with the 6cyl bell housing. If it's too big, we'll have to source a 4cyl one. Thanks, anyway!
  11. Is it possible to mate a LT85 (from a 6cil spanish Santana) to a 300Tdi engine? The 300Tdi engine is currently in a SIII 88 LHD, and connected to the standard 4cil SIII gearbox. Will the LT85 connect directly to the 300Tdi, or does it need an adapter plate? Thanks!
